The problem is that if you marry your cousin, there is a high chance that you might have children with genetic defects (note I said high chance....not that you would have).

You mentioned India. Well...from the Indian newspaper The Hindu

In our study we showed that consanguinity could increase the incidence of many blinding disorders like retinitis pigmentosa, Leber congenital amaurosis, Lawrence-Moon-Bardet-Biedl syndrome, Stargardt disease, Usher syndrome etc (Consanguinity and Ocular Genetic Diseases in South India: Analysis of a Five-year study. Community Genetics: 2002:5:180-185). Consanguinity could increase the risk of inheriting any one of the 4968 (autosomal recessive) genetic diseases that could affect any part of the body from head to foot.

The report I quoted did go on to say that you could marry your third cousin without any issues. And if your cousin was adopted....ie no genetic tie to your extended family.....that should not be a problem.

However, most Nigerian cultures don't accept consanguineous marriages.And even where it is ''legal'' most families might not accept such. (As an example, an American singer married his cousin....who was actually a girl adopted by one of his uncles and aunt...his mother's sister. The singer's sister disagreed with the relationship....even though it was technically legal...and there was a falling out which took some time to resolve). So.....I would advise you not to proceed.

Sharap bro



In the bible days people got married to their cousins some even their sisters. Have you asked who Cain got married to? What about the story of lots daughter, who drunked their father to sleep with them so that they can continue his linage!!

Some cultures in Nigeria still accepts such tradition. Just that the society sees it as achiac


so op, there are many fishes in the river and not only those in your pond!!!
